# Invite to the Jest (exercise delete skills as needed)

    Many of us have been asked what it takes to set up a MOO: what software, what
    kind of computer, how much RAM. We are asked about the costs of the
    machinery. People talk in $$terms of technological resources and rarely of
    the human resources. For every MOO server, every meg of RAM, we also need to
    consider the people who work to set up, maintain, and develop MOOs: the
    wizards, admins, programmers, builders and yes, the "players."  Part of
    "valuing" the play we do on MOO also has to do with "valuing" the
    extraordinary amount of time and creative effort that goes into our MOOs on
    a, mostly, volunteer basis. As we promote MOO for education, we also need to
    ensure that we place as much value on our people as we do the technology
    itself.
